How Appomattox Paved the Way
For Manila and Santiago.
NATION BUILT BY A PARTY. |

(iruut, Whtch the Hejiubllcon Party |
Has Made Good. I'ntU We Have One j
Country Airatn—A Housing Soldier I
Meeting In Support ot the Soldier
Ticket—l'eaoe at l.ast Between Phil- '
udelplila Factions. i
(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Aug. If).—The beginning
of American victories over Spain was
not at Manila, but at Appomattox.
When General Grarib said to the beaten
and broken Confederates after the sur
render, "Keep your horses; you will j
need them to plow your fields," ha |
sounded the high keynote of that con- I
sisteiit Republican policy which has j
resulted in making this nation a union
indeed, not a mere collection of com
munities pinned together with bay- j
onets. This has been brought strongly '
to mind by two events which have j
taken place here within the last few j
days—the visit of the survivors of |
Pickett's division as the guests of Phil- i
adelplila Grand Army men, and the j
meeting of the Pennsylvania Associa- :
tiun of War Veterans' clubs, for the |
purpose of reminding the old soldiers j
and their sons, to whom the war of the
sixties is only heroic hearsay, that
there is a soldier ticket on the Repub
lican corner of the ballot this year
which deserves their votes as repre
sentative of both the past and the
future of the country.
However they might appear at the !
first glance, no two meetings were ever
more consistent with each other. Both
represented the comradeship of all true
soldiers, who. in reaching out the hand
of gallant recognition toward all brave '
men who stood in the opposing line, do
not forget the fraternity of men who '
have slept under the same blanket and j
faced the same Ure. A veteran of Pick- j
ett's who left a large fraction of him- |
self in Pennsylvania after that last
mad dash at Gettysburg and now walks
on crutches made this point very well, i
He was a typical back country Virgin- j
ian—neighbor, no doubt, to that one
who shocked one of the hallboys at
the swellest hotel in Philadelphia by
appearing upon the ground itoor after |
midnight, in sock feet, with his sus
penders hanging from his shoulders
and the ice water pitcher in his hand,
inquiring where the pump was—but he :
is a notable man in his neighborhood,
has been continuously justice of the
peace for years, and served a term
in the legislature. And while he might !
not be up to date in some peculiarities
of modern civilization, lie is full of
homely common sens- and useful
knowledge.
Experience teaches the observing
that there is many a man who is liable I
to blow out the gas who is nevertheless
lit to make laws for the directors of the
gas company. The 'squire said:
"When General Grant started your
party on that high plane of treatment |
of our people he put us on our honor. !
We were down on our backs, and the ,
Republican party was throned in abso- :
lute power, in our anticipation It was
only a question how many of our lead
ers you would consider it necessary to
hang. You might have treated us as the
prostrate inhabitants of conquered isl
ands, and you received us instead as
fellow citizens, and lived up to your '
proclamations that you had been fight
ing with us for four years only to
keep us In that relation. Much has
been said of the magnanimity, the gen
erosity, the charity and so on of the j
treatment of the south by the north j
fitter the war, but It took the present
war to call proper attention to the fore- i
sight and bioad statesmanship of the
Republican party in following the pol
icy it has pursued. McKinley has |
shown himself worthy of the example |
of Lincoln and Grant. When he cuntin- j
ued Fitz I-.ee at Havana and then gave
old Joe Wheeler the chance he sought
togo out and get shot at under the old
flag he warmed our hearts and turned
a clinch on the good work of ;>0 years.
"What do we folks think of Mc-
Kinley? What did you think in 'O4,
when it was tried to put somebody else 1
In Lincoln's place to settle the Job? No j
president since Lincoln has grown upon
the country after his election so fast
as McKinley,, and there are a lot of us
down south who never voted anything
but a Democratic ticket who are not
only going to be for McKinley next
time, but who are for the ticket that
represents McKinley this fall. The ;
party that has fought the war must be
the party to settle the issues growing
out of the war. now as in '65. We may I
be just at the beginning of our troubles, j
and all the nations of this earth must
be taught that this country stands
right behind its president, as the north
stood by Lincoln. His defeat would
have been worth an army to the Con
federacy then, and any doubtful sound
that would go out to the world from our
voting places this fall might cost us an
other war. You—we—have one party
in this country which has proved it
self capable not only of conducting a
great war. but of gathering its fruits
and dealing with the questions which
follow, nnff the enthusiasm for its suc
cess in the elections this year Is Just
plain horse sense. And so." he
added, with a sweeping gesture to
ward the room where the war vete
rans were declaring their loyalty to the
Republican soldier ticket, "so is that.
I wouldn't give shucks for an old soi
d'er who wouldn't stand by another old
soldier whenever he got a chance."
The War Veterans had a remarka
bly representative and earnest meeting,
by the way. On the roll call 51 coun
ties responded, and, before the presi
dent of the association. Colonel Robert
B. Beath, finished his opening address,
a number of others came in. They were
men whose names stand for something,
too. As a sample, take this committee
on resolutions:
Hon. George W. Hood, of Indiana,
rhalrman; Thomas G. Sample, of Al
legheny; T. A. Cochran, of Armstrong;
: L'aptaln Fred M. Yerger. of Berks; Hon.
j W. T. Da vies, of Bradford; Major J.
1 T. Ensmlnger, of Dauphin; Hon. Mll
! ton S. Lytic, of Huntingdon; Captain
! S. A. Craig, of Jefferson; Colonel Os
: car L. Jackson, of Lawrence; General
i John P. Taylor, of Mifflin; James 8.
; Morrison, of Philadelphia; Hon. I). J.
Horner, of Somerset; Colonel Chill W.
I Hazzard, of Washington, and Colonel
i N. A. MoKown, of Wyoming.
In the resolutions, which were adopt
| ed with fervid applause, after congrat-
J ulating the country on the heroism of
its young soldiers who are now In the
| Held, and warmly endorsing President
j McKinley for his conduct of the war,
j the association declared as follows:
"That, in the coming election, we
j pledge our hearty and unanimous sup
i port to our comrades, as well as their
I associates upon the Republican ticket,
1 and thus show by our votes that those
who stood by our country's tlag and
j defended it In the hour of need have
I not been forgotten by a grateful peo
| pie, and that such sons our cominon
! wealth delights to honor.
"That it is the sense of the veterans
of the war of the rebellion, and we be
lieve It to be the Judgment of all the
patriotic citizens of this commonwealth,
that, as in the year 1864, so now the
soldiers in the field should have the
j right to vote, and our state otllclals
; should early take the necessary steps
j to have this privilege accorded every
j soldier and sailor now in the service
I jf the country.
"In 1864 the Democratic party of this
state declared that the legislation al
| lowing our soldiers and sailors in the
; field to vote was unconstitutional, and
j in support of that declaration the pres
| ent Democratic candidate for governor,
Hon. George A. Jenks, by his voice and
i Influence, showed that he was in com
plete accord with the leaders of his
j party, and he ought not. therefore, re
j ceive political support from those who
! believe In the justice of that measure
! to the men then serving their country
on land and sea.
"That, as survivors of the war of the
i rebellion, we call upon our comrades
: and fellow citizens to cast their votes
at the coming election for the Kepubli
; can ticket, In order that this great
patriotic state shall have a full Ke
-1 publican delegation in congress, and a 1
Republican legislature, so that it shall
! become a matter of record that Penn
sylvania Is arrayed on the side of right,
justice, humanity and prosperity, thus
' saying to the country at large that
the people may continue to rely on Re
publican principles as the means by
which the nation, -under the wise lead
ership of President McKinley and his
advisers, may continue on Its onward
march of progress."
Speeches In the line of the resolu
tions were made by General James W.
1-attu. ex-Lieutenant Governor William
T. Davies, General B. Franklin Fisher,
Congressman Thad Mahan and others,
and a campaign committee of 15 was
provided for.to see to It that the work
done with so much effect for McKinley
in 'Hti, and by the parent organization
—the old "Boys In Blue"—as far back
; as 1866. shall be repeated this fall.
Here in Philadelphia, whose big vote
is always a matter of general state in
terest, the significant development of
'■ the week just closed Is the decisive evi
dence that the factional dlffeijenees
which have split up the party for over
three years have been wiped away.
It's as safe as a bet on McKinley's re
election that there will be only one Re
publican local ticket tills fall, with the
whole party behind it.

l uefiilnttao i«f llit Owl.
"Can there be any possible harm in
killing owls for women's hats?" ex
claimed a New Yoi'k milliner to a
member of the Audubon Society the
other day."Of what use are the hor
rid creatures to anybody?"-
The pretty milliner was guite sur
prised when told that owls were very
useful birds. Owls eat the ti-M mice,
and other small rodents that work
great injury to the farmer, and every
one that is lost not only means a me
nace to the farmers, but a distinct loss
; to agriculture.
Dr. C. Hart Merriam. ornithologist of
the United States Department of Ag
riculture, has estimated that in offering
j a bounty on owls and hawks, which re
i suited in the killing of more than 100,-
000, the Slate of Pennsylvania sustain
ed a loss of nearly $5,000,000 in one
year and a half.

Loyalty la Frlendahlp.
j A striking example of Charles Dick
ens' chivalrous regard for an absent
; friend is recalled by Dean Farrar. Mr.
Sims Reeves had been announced to
sing at a small public dinner at which
Dickens presided, and, as happened not
infrequently, Mr. Sims Reeves had
i something the matter with his throat,
and was unable to attend. Dickens
announced this and the announcement
was received with a general laugh of
, incredulity. This made Dickens very
angry and he rose manfully to the de
fense of the delinquent. "My friend,
Mr. Sims Reeves," he said quietly, "re
grets his inability to fulfill his engage
ment, owing," he added with caustic
severity, "to an unfortunately amusing
and highly facetious cold."—Tht

Mot ltecauiio They Mlffltt, Hut to Silence
Their
A baggageman on the Santa Fe, who
runs into Kansas City from out in the
western part of Kansas, has lost lots
of sleep. It is doubtful if he con ever
catch up with it. He leaves Hutch
inson at night and reaches Kansas
City in the morning. Nearly every
night he brings in his car two or three
coops of live domestic ducks. During
the night, when he has no baggage to
deliver at small stations, it has been
his habit and privilege to lie down
on an improvised couch and doze.
With the advent of the ducks the doz
ing stopped. The almost constant
quacking of the ducks, who could not
understand their 3trange environment,
would not permit of sleep.
For many nights, as ho lay awake,
he planned relief. He thought of
strangling the ducks or chloroforming
them. But neither expedient seemed
good. One night a bright idea came
to him. After he had put It into exe
cution the ducks were silent.
The next night he had two coops
of unusually vociferous ducks. As
soon as It came time for sleep he
wrenched a slat from one of the coops,
reached in, and pulled out a duck.
From his pocket he took a small rub
ber band, which he slipped over the
duck's bill just back of the nostrils.
The duck tried to quack, but the rub
ber band, while it stretched a little,
would not permit the duck to open Its
bill far enouuh to use its tongue. Only
a murmur came from It. One by one
the ducks were muzzled, and the bag
gageman rested comfortably.
The commission men were surprised
next morning when they received a lot
of ducks with rubber bands around
their bills, and when the bands were
removed the shouts of protest from
the ducks were deafening.
Origin of Infantry.
The term "infantry" soldiers origi
nated with the Spanish, and was first
applied to the military force employed
by an infante, or young prince of Spain,
to rescue his father fro in the Moor?.
